    Does the time of day play a factor in this calculation?

    I need to know if at 3:00 PM on Jan. 1, 2099, an account is created and set to expire in 3 days…

    When will it actually expire:

    • 3:00 PM on Jan. 3, 2099
    • 3:00 PM on Jan. 4, 2099
    • 12:00 AM on Jan. 3, 2099
    • 12:00 AM on Jan. 4, 2099

    The granularity is on whole calendar days only, and expiration take place at the end of the last day; because it is run as a system wide batch job.

    The time of the day does not play a factor.

    The plugin uses WordPress’s built-in cron system for account expiry checks.
    https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/cron/

    It schedules a daily cron job that runs once per day, but the exact time it fires depends on site traffic and other factors — so you can’t predict the precise time it will execute on any given day.

    Yes. Approximately midnight at where your site is.
